The Essity Elastocrepe Cotton Crepe Bandage 10 cm x 4 m is an elastic, non-adhesive support bandage designed to provide light support and controlled compression to affected areas. It is suitable for applications where a flexible bandage is needed around joints, muscles or other contoured areas. Essity describes Elastocrepe as a woven cotton crepe bandage made from cotton and viscose, with a special weave designed to provide targeted compression.
The bandage has a conformable construction that allows it to follow body contours while permitting movement. Its non-fraying edges help maintain the integrity of the bandage during use, while the washable and reusable design makes it practical for repeated applications when appropriate. The 10 cm width makes it particularly useful for areas requiring broader coverage than a narrow crepe bandage.
The stated 4-metre length is measured when stretched, according to product information available for the Indian variant. Always apply compression evenly and avoid wrapping the bandage excessively tightly, as this can affect circulation.

Compression bandages should not automatically be worn overnight. Unless a healthcare professional has specifically advised otherwise, follow the product instructions and avoid prolonged compression that could affect circulation.
